  1. Tankar Island

    This lighthouse island once offered safe passage through the tangled waters surrounding it but has become a popular day trip (adult/child €17/7) for nature walks and a leisurely lunch at the pierside Café Tankar. Kokko Line departs from the camping ground in summer (4½ hours, noon and 8am June and August, noon and 6pm July).

  2. KH Renlund Museo

    KH Renlund Museo is in a large 19th-century merchant’s mansion. It contains the collection of Karl Herman Renlund, a shopkeeper who left his art collection for the benefit of ‘students and the working class’. The collection is unexceptional, but for a Victor Westerholm canvas depicting a raging torrent of the Voikkaa rapids.
